“If I’m using this to connect a laptop to a portable monitor (and charge the laptop), will the portable monitor also receive power through this connection? Or do I still have to plug in the portable monitor to a power source?”

The behavior of the USB-C to Dual USB-C with Video or Power Delivery when connecting a laptop to a portable monitor depends on the following factors: - If the portable monitor can receive power through its USB-C video/data port (and supports USB-C Power Delivery pass-through), it may receive power directly from the laptop via the JCA164. - The JCA164 can deliver up to 100W of power input, but the actual power distributed to connected devices depends on the capabilities of your laptop and the monitor’s consumption. - Some monitors require more power than what can be delivered through the USB-C connection and will still need a separate power source.
